I have formatted my computer, to polish it from various viruses,
after I have installed the CYGWIN following the instructions of,
Nick: http://www.gammon.com.au/smaug/installingcygwin.htm.
2 months ago, as soon as I installed the cygwin, it went' everything well, and the make
it worked, I now have problem:

pasgal@pasgal-hi7oiw32 ~
$ cd c:

pasgal@pasgal-hi7oiw32 /cygdrive/c
$ cd smaug

pasgal@pasgal-hi7oiw32 /cygdrive/c/smaug
$ cd src

pasgal@pasgal-hi7oiw32 /cygdrive/c/smaug/src
$ make
bash: make: command not found

pasgal@pasgal-hi7oiw32 /cygdrive/c/smaug/src
$

If "make" isn't there you haven't installed the development tools. It isn't part of the default install. If you follow my instructions exactly you should get 'make'.

Nick I have referred all a second time,
I have cancelled from c: the cartel cygwin
I have cancelled from start/programmi cygwin
I have reinstal cygwin as you say footstep footstep
(2 months ago, to my first download any found problem)
today after having him/it reinstallato it tells me this:


Copying skeleton files.
These files are for the user to personalise
their cygwin experience.

These will never be overwritten.

`./.bashrc' -> `/home/pasgal//.bashrc'
`./.bash_profile' -> `/home/pasgal//.bash_profile'
`./.inputrc' -> `/home/pasgal//.inputrc'

If you look at my Cygwin installation page, when you run the Cygwin setup, you *must* have a checkbox next to the word "make" in the "Devel" section.

Can you confirm you have that?

Dear friend Nick, has resolved my problem
I have followed your example, but for safety
I have installed all the voices of the briefcases:
Devel, Doc, Editors, Shells. All the voices, for
safety. My problem is finally resolved.
Thanks for your continuous answers, thanks.

De Martino :o)

PS: Nick I don't love this writing:
pasgal@pasgal-hi7oiw32 ~
pasgal@pasgal "-hi7oiw32"

to change in :

pasgal@pasgal ~

there is a way to get away or to change it?
If the I change, does it change all l my operating system?
